Item 4408
Introduced In: 2004
Porcelain
Most Nambé Porcelain is microwave safe and dishwasher safe. Exceptions are decorated porcelain, which should be washed by hand, and porcelain decorated with gold, silver, or platinum, which cannot be used in the microwave. Rinse each piece prior to loading it into the dishwasher and avoid overcrowding. Load pieces securely on racks and position so that they do not come into contact with other items during the cycle. Porcelain pieces may also be washed by hand using a mild detergent and soft sponge.
Care
- Do not subject Nambé Porcelain items to severe temperature changes; items should be at room temperature before putting hot foods in them
- Do not use porcelain in a conventional oven, under the broiler, or on a burner
- To prevent scratches, make sure pieces do not come into contact with other pieces; paper may be placed between stacks of dinnerware to prevent contact
- To remove marks caused by metal utensils or stains, rub gently using a non-abrasive cleanser and soft sponge
Mikaela Dörfel
"With a clear line for the brand" is
the credo of designer Mikaela Dörfel. Raised in Finland, she came into early
contact with the works of renowned Finnish designers Tapio Wirkkala, Kaj Franck
and Alvar Aalto. She considers Scandinavian form to be her largest influence.
While studying in Hamburg, she developed an affinity for designing tabletop
products, with a particular interest in working in porcelain and glass. Her
work as a design manager for one of the world's largest tabletop companies
helped her to gain strong brand and materials awareness. Her designs have
earned international recognition and numerous awards, most recently for her
cutlery designs for Zwilling.
We are unable to offer personalization on this item at this time. Most Nambé Alloy and Nambé Crystal items can be personalized. Our crystal items are personalized through a process called laser etching, which produces a result very similar to sandblasting. We create a high resolution image of your message and turn it over to our personalization experts, who use a computerized laser to create your message onto the surface of your Nambé purchase. For our Nambé Alloy products, the laser etch process is followed by sandblasting for impressively sharp edges.
